Patient's question:
I was carefully examined and found to have bacterial prostatitis and prostate calcification. The main symptom is frequent urination, about once or twice every hour. I also feel weak in my waist and legs. Last year, I was carefully examined again, and the condition was still the same: bacterial prostatitis. The doctor said it wasn't very serious, but my frequent urination is severe. I go to the bathroom three or four times at night, which is very annoying. This year, since February, I've been experiencing frequent urination again. I need to urinate every one and a half hours, and my waist feels swollen, especially after drinking alcohol, when urination becomes even more severe. I always feel the urge to go to the bathroom, and I can urinate. I have been taking ofloxacin and Liuwei Dihuang Pill for over a month, but there is no improvement.Doctor's answer:
I. Use of Short-Term Small Doses of Androgens: Pay attention to the side effects of androgens, especially for elderly men, and note the indications and contraindications.II. Antioxidant Stress Effects: The recurrence mechanism of prostatitis can be selected based on the oxidative stress response in semen or prostatic fluid.
III. Relieving Pain Symptoms: If the pain symptoms are not very severe, there is no need for blood-activating drugs, and other treatment methods can be considered.
IV. Stabilizing Urinary Abnormalities: Men can perform pelvic floor muscle training under the guidance of a doctor, which is beneficial for urinary function.
V. Actively engage in physical exercise while also paying attention to dietary adjustment to maintain good health. Pay special attention to the intake of trace elements such as zinc.
